Abstract
A device may obtain, through wireless signaling from a network, a time-domain wireless-resource allocation (TWRA) pattern allocated to the device by the network and corresponding to a future time interval (TTI) for which the device has not yet decoded corresponding control information. This enables the device to conduct wireless communications during the TTI using resources allocated according to the obtained TWRA pattern, without first having to decode control information to identify the TWRA pattern. The device may obtain the TWRA pattern by obtaining an indication from the network that the TWRA pattern remains associated with future wireless communications of the device until indicated otherwise by the network, and/or by transmitting to the network an indication of preferred parameters associated with the future wireless communications and the TWRA pattern, and/or by transmitting to the network a request to have the network change from a different TWRA pattern to the TWRA pattern.
